A Child-Friendly Railway

We are delighted to have been given awards recently in two different competitions to find visitor attractions that provide good facilities for children and young people.

Child Friendly Leeds

One of these competitions was for the "Child Friendly Leeds" awards. These are made at the beginning of each year, and for 2019 we were nominated in the category for "Best Place in Leeds for Children and Young People".

These awards are sponsored by Child Friendly Leeds, which is run by Leeds City Council, and this was the sixth year in which they had been made. More details of these awards can be found at Leeds City Council's page for the Child Friendly Awards (which will open in a separate browser tab or window).

Shown below is the certificate recording our nomination.

Family Favourites

The other competition was for the "Family Favourites" awards, and is run by the organisation "Days Out with the Kids". For 2018 we were one of six finalists from Yorkshire in the category "Best event at an attraction". This recognised the success of our event "Walk in the Woods", which ran on Sunday 6th and Monday 7th May.
